Very gripping
Wow - loved it!!!
Gosh, what can I say? I just love Chris Carter's books and don't even have to read the back to know I'm going to enjoy it! Yet again Robert Hunter and his genius mind are faced with a deranged psychopath. This time however, as the crimes are committed all over the place, Robert and his partner are forced to team up with FBI, and as you can imagine both sides are not too pleased about it. Great,great book,cannot wait to read the next one.

I am little late, to put it mildly, with reading this book but better late than never I always say!
What a good read and one I'm pleased I didn't miss. Full of twists and turns, excellent characters, gripping story and a great writing style this is a great debut and one I would recommend to the few people out there who, like me, are a bit late joining the party!
Thanks go to Little, Brown Book Group UK via NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest review.

Micky Barnard (542 KP) rated Sully (2016) in Movies

Gripping
Sully was more than I expected. It superceded normal disaster movie/plane crash territory and took a narrative built on the personal story of Sully, the Captain of the plane.
This film viewed the crash from various perspectives and as a viewer you build an understanding of what happened and why. The experience of Sully himself and the first officer as their decision making and performance was investigated was rather brutal and made fascinating watching.
Tom Hanks played a believable character, controlled on the outside, doubting on the inside. Great performance.

Great story
Must watch TV
A truly binge worthy TV programme that will whizz by at just 8 episodes long. I had heard many good reviews for this and highly rated by TV critics as well. It has a very good gripping storyline that will hook you in. As slowly more is revealed over time and in flashbacks why an apparently random act of violence has a lot more to it. Great acting from the leads as well. If you like crime thrillers then check this out!

Gripping and dry
What I love about Jane Harper's books is the biggest character is always the landscape the story takes place in. Force of nature is set in one of Australia's cold and dark national parks, rugged and unforgiving and so the atmosphere is set. Take office politics up a notch to a brutal level and add intriguing and constant suspense and you will find it difficult to not read just another chapter. If you like crime novels Harper's and human and most importantly believable. Won't get a better thriller/crime novel this year

Melanie Caldicott (6 KP) rated And the Mountains Echoed in Books
Apr 29, 2021
I loved The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns and was not disappointed with And The Mountains Echoed. Hosseini is a masterful writer whose storytelling is arresting, captivating and spellbinding. Each of the stories in this book are beautiful. It is a particularly admirable skill to write stories that are so thought-provoking, but are still gripping and compelling. The themes of family, what makes us human, the beautiful personal perspectives and the evocative locations of the stories all combine to make this book immensely rich and hugely enjoyable. Just brilliant!
